Sherburne board votes to move forward with municipal based ambulance

SHERBURNE – After hearing the recommendation made by the Sherburne Ambulance Committee, the Village Board passed a motion “to move forward and form a committee to research and form a municipal-based ambulance service.

The village has been exploring its options for a revenue recovery ambulance service for several months. Recently, it formed an ambulance committee to determine how to best move forward with the project.

“The EMS Committee that we formed discussed different options and it is their opinion that we should look at the municipal option,” Mayor William Acee told the board during Tuesday night’s meeting. Acee explained the committee determined that a smaller working committee, made up of about five members, should be formed to work out the details of the process.
